As far a politics who ever wins I would hope for a lot of change
I don't like to talk politics so that is all I will say
I dont know why I had it in my head, but I thought that a mig (unless ya got a really hefty one) couldnt do much more then sheet metal!

Time to bring mine back out to my farm and play a little! (I dont have a shop or garage built yet, so I have to keep it in the garden shed, and thought why bother, cant weld thin sheetmetal out here anyways!!)

Heres what I told my fellow canadians when it came time to vote up here, this is the last thing i will say about it.

Dont vote for who you think will be the best person, vote for the one that screws you the least, and provides the most lube!!

For some reason the political threads I've been subscribed to in the Club have died off in the past few days. I have not heard a peep out of any of the nut cases in there. I suppose I may be considered the head nut by many, but I earned my right to be a nut.

alot of you were wondering why the last OT was "closed AFTER it was closed" it was for talking politics. I don't think that discussing that we went and voted counts for that.....but if anything beyond that comes up, it always gets heated, and we could lose our little campfire called the OT. Do I need to post more pictures of Bolt-Ons?

Right, consider it over everyone. I dont want the campfire to get put out by the jolly geen giant. Keep it to pm's if it's that important.

EDIT- Travis beat me, agreed. So yes, more bolt ons, no need to argue over those. Everyone wins in that election....

I just went back and deleted my own post just in case. The whole reason we get left alone here is that we tend to govern ourselves so thats keep it that way.
